Majestic diving spots, picturesque views, the legendary Komodo dragons! Read our itinerary here: thetravelintern.com/labuan-bajo-itinerary
----------------------------------------
0:36 Komodo Suites Downtown
Komodo Suites Downtown offers airy, spacious rooms just a 5-minute walk from town. With sea views and enough floorspace to leave suitcases open, it's a convenient and comfortable base plus, affordable.
0:42 Island Hopping & Iconic Komodo Island
0:50 Padar Island
Padar Island is famous for its stunning views, where you can see 3 beaches at the same time. It’s a short but steep hike to the top, and the view is absolutely worth it.
01:07 Komodo Island
Komodo Island is a highlight of our island tour, offering us the rare chance to see wild Komodo dragons up close during a guided forest trek. It’s a thrilling and unforgettable experience, just be sure to keep a safe distance!
01:27 Pink Beach
Pink Beach is a rare gem with soft sand tinted a natural pink hue and clear waters perfect for snorkeling. While the color may be subtler than edited photos online, it's still a beautiful, unique spot worth visiting.
01:36 Manta Point
Manta Point is one of Komodo’s most iconic dive and snorkel spots, known for its clear waters and the chance to swim alongside majestic manta rays. These gentle giants often glide gracefully in groups, making it an easy highlight for marine life lovers.
01:41 Underwater World of Labuan Bajo
01:43 Dragon Dive Komodo
Diving with Dragon Dive Komodo is unforgettable, with vibrant reefs, sharks, sea turtles, schools of jackfish, and manta rays all in one trip. Each site offers its own thrill, from strong currents and massive schools of fish to surprise underwater encounters with excellent visibility.
02:09 Food
02:14 Pasar Malam
Pasar Malam is a lively night market where fresh seafood is grilled to order and served with flavorful local sauces. It’s a delicious, affordable way to enjoy the catch of the day while supporting the local fishing community.
02:24 Pizza Haus
Pizza Haus is the only one-of-its-kind, specialty pizza house in Labuan Bajo town proper. They only serve pizza and nothing else, with their half-and-half pizza well-loved by many.
02:28 Mugen Ramen & Grill
Mugen is one of the few Japanese restaurants here, offering the widest variety of vegetarian options, including vegan tantanmen with rich, creamy broth. The menu also features favorites like beef aburasoba and chicken katsu curry. Dining at sunset means stunning, unobstructed harbor views.
02:32 La Cucina
La Cucina LBJ is a cozy Italian restaurant in Labuan Bajo, known for its authentic wood-fired pizzas and fresh pasta dishes. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy a relaxed meal with great flavors after a day of exploring.
02:36 Hidden Caves & Waterfalls
02:47 Gua Batu Cermin
Batu Cermin, or "Mirror Stone," is a fascinating cave just 4km from Labuan Bajo, named for sunlight reflections dancing on its walls. Exploring its dark, winding chambers reveals ancient turtle and fish fossils, making it an exciting adventure beyond a simple hike.
03:06 Cunca Wulang Waterfalls
Cunca Wulang Waterfall, meaning “Waterfall Moon,” is a refreshing spot reached after a short 20-minute hike. Visitors can cliff jump into cool waters and relax afterward with coffee from a nearby stand, though caution is needed around strong currents in the plunge pool.
03:33 Rangko Cave
Rangko Cave is a hidden gem reached by a short boat ride from a fishing village. It features a natural saltwater pool fed by the sea rather than a waterfall. Visitors can swim, stroll the shoreline, and enjoy fresh coconuts—just watch for cheeky macaques seeking snacks!
03:44 Culture and Unique Experiences
03:49 Rumah Tenun Baku Peduli
Rumah Tenun Baku Peduli is a women-led heritage center preserving the traditional Manggarai craft of songket weaving, a rare skill held by fewer than 70 women in Flores. Each Flores district has unique weaving patterns, allowing locals to identify origins through intricate songkets, which take months to create using natural dyes.
04:17 Dapur Tara
Dapur Tara offers a unique forest-to-table dining experience in Melo, where all dishes are made from locally grown ingredients and cooked over an open fire. Their shared lunch features authentic Flores flavors, like crunchy fried fermented milk and creamy vegetable curry, all prepared from scratch by the owner and local cooks.
